-5yb=5x+2-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-5yb=2x+2
Combine 5x and -3x to get 2x.
\left(-5y\right)b=2x+2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-5y\right)b}{-5y}=\frac{2x+2}{-5y}
Divide both sides by -5y.
b=\frac{2x+2}{-5y}
Dividing by -5y undoes the multiplication by -5y.
b=-\frac{2\left(x+1\right)}{5y}
Divide 2+2x by -5y.
-5yb=5x+2-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-5yb=2x+2
Combine 5x and -3x to get 2x.
\left(-5y\right)b=2x+2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-5y\right)b}{-5y}=\frac{2x+2}{-5y}
Divide both sides by -5y.
b=\frac{2x+2}{-5y}
Dividing by -5y undoes the multiplication by -5y.
b=-\frac{2\left(x+1\right)}{5y}
Divide 2+2x by -5y.
3x-5yb-5x=2
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-2x-5yb=2
Combine 3x and -5x to get -2x.
-2x=2+5yb
Add 5yb to both sides.
-2x=5by+2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{5by+2}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{5by+2}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x=-\frac{5by}{2}-1
Divide 2+5yb by -2.
